Blog#6 1000 what?


I think that society wants to see things in a different light. Robert Rich is a believer that is very creative in his thinking. He states he only has 1000 fans that love his music and understand him as an artist. That is kind of weird to understand but once he dissected his reasoning it really makes a whole lot of sense. He once said and I am not quoting just summarizing what I got out of his story is that he just wants to create awareness to people stating that out there in life there are a lot of bumps in the road to get him where he wanted to be but maybe their was a doubt in his mind that he might have took on a bigger task then ever before to become who is today. Risking it all to do what he loves. I can’t be certain but there are bits and pieces in his talk that to me is the red flag of doubt. But at the same time the awareness is forever there in between the lines. It is weird to categorize his life to knowing that from all across the world he only can calculate that he has only 1000 true fans he feels in his heart that they reach out to him the way he wanted them to. But what if he has more friends out there and he just doesn’t know he has and what if they just are all his fans. Does it really matter if their downloading his songs? It simply means they like him. If their not downloading his songs it either means they don’t know he exists or they don’t like him. Does the market flood itself by advertising a perception of what people should buy? Yes we are taught to persuade you that a product is the necessity for everyday life. I think advertisers have some means of making people go a little crazy but how would we get you to buy the product? It takes a lot of time to build a concept that is suitable to the viewers. They have to go through I think 4 or 5, I might still be wrong but that’s how many government regulations they have to go through before they land themselves a million dollar deal. You could have an idea and by the time their done dissecting it your idea is still there but its beat to a pulp and the concept stinks but you have to use it because it just cost time which you don’t have to produce the ad. It seems like this concept can apply with this fan study. You want to make people like you and but at the same time jumping is easier than walking. So what I am trying to say is that once you figure out a concept and you did jump and took that leap you can start to understand your fan base and make it better.

Blog#7 REMIX'in LIFE But are we Being TEASED?

At the end of 2008 America told us that they wont be taking on small lawsuits on remixing songs, anything online, or whatever you can get your hands on. But why say this statement and yet still be Big Brother? It's funny how people don't know what's going on in their own country I mean its big enough for us to not know what we need to know, but at the same time I am guilty of not knowing what future is out there making our life better. As I reflect on that I do humbly say that it would be nice to know a lot about other people and new ideas on making this world a better place. Sounds so cliche but at the same time maybe this step forward will give us the boost we need to fight for our free speech to live the life in peace and frankly just be happy. Also if you think about it we'll be in control if we all speak up. But once we start to rally all the troops there's nothing left for us to do because America took over and pushed us out to sea. They don't want a outbreak and they don't care all they care about is how much money will they make to push us out to sea and how many other laws they can make to get them back on top. Maybe I'm wrong and maybe I sort of have a clue of what happens in this world but who are you to judge me on my opinion. Who are you to know what really goes on in this world. I think having George Bush as our I hate to say this president shows Americas true colors. Take a little time to actually know what is happening in this world and act on it and blog. Blog is the new free speech so take control and write what you feel. People keep things hidden, anything locked away and the key is thrown somewhere only one soul can find. I can't believe what our country has done for us. I mean United we stand but when we fall their not there to catch us. One slip up were in jail for life. So why is this a sea of piratecy? The US is trying to build an economy that basically if you look around can't be built. Enforcing laws is in the past and I do agree that the past is in the past move forward think first and be more aware of your surroundings. The less you know and the more stubborn you are just pushes you back in life. It makes you think in a box and your answers are right but sub consciously thinking while life passes you by you will never grow intellectually and that suxs for you. Life is great when the economy changes the rules? Changing the rules is a new step for the people to have a voice. We want to change the rules. We want to have the freedom of knowing that our country is on our side. More rules for us makes us more free? Its a counter balance just say in the end if we play our cards rights we might win. The challenge to fight is better than not fighting and knowing at all. Grab the bull by the horns! Why have the clue dangling in front of us TEASING US into some false reality of life and what Ifs'. Are we being teased by America? Are we being the lab rats that carry all the diseases and having so many trials of drugs in us still makes us the bad guys? But how do you suppose we make these rules? Well it's up to us to figure that out. Research and lots of it because in the back of our minds we want the power of being more free in our counrty. We want to not have to worry about laws just ask Girl-Talk. Hey Paris likes him so why not? At least she made an empire off of her saying "That's Hot." Girl-Talk is a person in the US that makes his own re-mix's of songs that are being produced in the US lets say underground and the idea of his new developing technique actually originates from Brazil. People from Brazil are making re-mix's in their home towns and bringing them into the club life because the people are to poor to buy their own music. That's not so bad it's a way of passing the time and letting them live life in such harsh surroundings. So we need to understand that people can have that free voice and it's in everyone. Were not stupid and who cares if our country has a fatter outside, Its what's on the inside that counts.
